Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
| ut has been a light day in cotton certificates
and without features of a stirring character
| general turn, however, in buyers favor, the
weakness arising as much as anything through
want OF orders Liverpool dld not SHOW quite
| so much strength as had been hoped for and
that, with the run of port receipts keeping up to
| a pretty full volume, probably added to the
tameness prevailing. After gaining point or
| two at the opening, the rate dropped 60b7 points
| from the highest, and closed rather tame"

CHICAGO. Dec. 6.--Corn was the favorite
article on the list with traders on the Board of
Trade at the opening to-day. May opened at
5515c, or nc higher than yesterdays close. 1t
quickly sold up to soc. May wheat started at
S515c, against yesterday S close at So14c In the
earlier hours but little was done in provisions.
January pork opened at Sl4 80 under heavy
selling May corn dropped to 5514 @D553sc; May
wheat to 85c. Then came good Russian war
news and the market frmed up May wheat
went to S55sc, but the break in corn shortly
after noon took May back to 547kc, and in
sympathy with wheat up to 551Sc but heavy
selling sent it back to 55c. Pork sympathized
with other markets on the way down, but did
not respond so quickly to advances. War re-
ports having proved false, all the list went back
few points.
